This volume contains two celebrated plays by Jean Racine: 'Athalie' and 'Esther'. 'Athalie', a tragedy, recounts a story from the Old Testament about Queen Athaliah of Judah. 'Esther', also drawn from the Bible, tells the story of Esther, a Jewish woman who becomes Queen of Persia and saves her people from destruction. Both plays exemplify Racine’s mastery of French classical tragedy, marked by their elegant verse, profound psychological insight, and exploration of moral and religious themes.
